This be t' first launch o' me Estes Oracle model rocket with it's built in USB cam. Aye aye! Launch occured on 1/27/2007 on a boy scout outtin' with BSA Troop 716 t' Vandenburge Air Force Base. Begad! It be quiet windy, and t' launch rod on me large launch pad was too large for t' rocket, shiver me timbers, so I was forced t' use a small launch pad. T' launch angle was too low, and instead o' goin' up, shiver me timbers, it went in a low parabola. Ya scallywag! When t' ejection charge blew, t' shock cord connectin' t' body o' t' rocket with t' nose cone and parachute broke, and t' body fell t' t' ground, landin' in a area o' dense brush. Blimey! T' nose cone with camera landed up in a tree, as you can see in t' video. Avast, me proud beauty! I can't wait t' launch this thin' again, in less windy conditions with a better launcher.
